Keep the applications you want, in exchange for using the thing being slightly more of a pain in the ass so you use it less overall. And you can read it clearly in daylight, which is nice
Last I checked, nobody sells them domestically in the US, but you can import one easily. The Hisense ones take SIM cards, and the interface is really well setup. No google, though. You have to use web-downloaded APKs to scrape other APKs from the play store. Most apps don’t need it to function, thankfully.
I already switched to a linux phone. things are plenty of a pain in the ass, I’m just fantasizing about getting rid of it entirely. Not even a dumb phone
e-ink phone is also a cool idea though if only for the point of being more readable out and about in the world and kinder on my eyes at night
Linux phone sounds finicky as hell, honestly. I don’t mind it for the desktop, but that’s cus I had to learn to be careful about only running updates when I feel like risking personal tech support

Oh it is, I’m just a masochist or something. I like it.
